Hi! You mentioned in a prev oneshot that you were Indian, as a fellow south asian it is so nice to have someone into the fandom as well !!! May I have a request if batboys with an south asian so who does Indian classical dance like bharatnatyam or odissi please?

Heyyy I have never professionally learned classical Indian dances but I love watching them so ill try my best. Im sorry if its offensive, Im doing fem reader cuz gn wasn't requested..hope that okay too

Batboys x Dancer!Y/N

Dick grayson

He loved the story the dances depicted. He learned all the meanings and history behind all the hand movements and music.

Dick had probably been to India for a mission so he does know a little about indian history but now he has a much stronger motivation to learn everything and anything about that culture .

Also we all know dick has a thing for strong powerful women. And Bharatnatyam or Odssi or any indian classical dance for that matter REQUIRES SO MUCH STRENGTH . The facial expressions, the precise movement and the beauty of it all..he is whipped.

'He also loves when you get in touch with your culture. Dick is like a culture connoisseur and having a beautiful south asian girlfriend who is proud and expressive of her heritage makes him so proud.

He for sure has videos on videos which he show or boast about to anyone- even at galas , his favorite thing to talk about you and he is just so proud.

Jason Todd

I dont think todd will take the time to look into the difference meanings or stories these dances depict.

I have mentioned how much he stares and now he has a new found excuse to stress. Its like those movie montages of the wife through the husbands eyes where there is like a light glow behind her and he is just laughing (and then she dies or something)- idk if you know what I'm talking about but that exact thing happens with him.

you are like his salvation , so beautiful, golden poised and graceful. Its like a beggar seeing a goddess , a murderer on the steps of church or a ray of sunshine in the cold cold dark city - it becomes his way to spirituality.

He doesn't talk that much about it. the whole experience feels too surreal for him and he loves to see that side of you. when your practicing and don't have the routine perfected, he loves seeing the side of you no one else would get to see.

Tim drake-

This boy probably went to the ballet as a kid and I mean western rich parents-gotham city- I don't think he knows anything about indian classical dance so when he sees it for the first time he is shocked

He Is so intrigued , It just makes you so much cooler. He will love dropping in the middle of his patrols to watch you train and bring you snacks

He also loves doing your makeup for you , and the whole outfit....it looks super complicated and he is good with assembling stuff so he'll be really into it.

He would tbh encourage you to use your skill to start and internet channel and use that to promote movements. Also if you are into the idea of teaching immigrant kids on how to dance, he'll help find the means because being connected to your roots are just so important.

Rather than boring ass ballet in galas , he will promote other styles of dance especially indian classical.

Will cheer like a madman after your performances , even if they are at rich gotham galas. "WOHOO THATS MY GIRL THATS REAL ART YOU SEE THAT YOU RICH PRICKS"

Yea just because you have this super serious super cool skill doesn't mean you both wont be sitting in a dinner eating greasy food in the whole costume+makeup after performances. Youre still teenage dirtbags after all

Damian wayne-

he will draw you . loves sitting and sketching you dance .

He too is really into strong women and appreciates the beauty and precise art of indian dance.

Itll remind him of his home, like up in the mountains. Maybe dance is taught as a way of developing balance and precision. So to him you look like a strong fighter.

It just brings nostalgia and you look so ethereal while you dance. I think out of all batboys he would be most appreciative of the art

these are comparatively shorter but i didnt have too many thoughts. hope its okay tho

[krillking]

*saunters cutely* what are your forest elder beast hcs :3

OK OK SO. Quick preface or whatever but a lot of this n just the hcs i got in general for a lot of the elders have been cooking for. A while in my brain and in rambles with friends so no idea how to fully explain it all 10000% through a tumblr post BUT picking up teth by the scruff anyways ill do my best

a handful of thoughts are usually based on like. Bobcats/lynx actually thanks to this one scrap of concept art from when tgc was still rolling with the whole animal elders idea in development but since im a sucker for animal hcs i just took it n ran with it

ANYWAYS few of the big ones in terms of like. Appearance for teth are that she gets some fangs n claws obviously and er pupils can also constrict into slits

at the same time though they can also dilate which looks silly but i think teth should be silly sometimes. As a treat

A TAIL TOO this thought is a bit more recent shoutout to salem over @/catb-sh for that idea

it's like a bobcat tail tho so it's just. Short

also also. Yknow how baby bobcats are just made with ZERO proportions in mind? teth when they were younger girl was so lanky

with behavior i dont think she'd be too different? like. General feline grace n all would prob apply here which makes for an insane combo when u consider the strength teth has with the whole blacksmithing thing going on

another silly thought but teth would also just have The Bobcat Scream (look it up if u haven't) which sounds. Super ridiculous but it makes me insane like imagine being in hidden forest and just hearing That in the distance cause they got startled or smthing

ALSO PURRING. SHOUTOUT TO THAT BIG FAN KF THAT also kneading when they're all relaxed n comfy though they'd never do that around anyone unless they're like super super close to them

i am. Very normal abt beast elders n a handful of these actually? Kinda apply to the samekh twins since i roll with the hc theyre teths kids with priestess (concept valley elder basically turned fanon idk if u know abt her yet but. Bro if you don't then just ask @whitebookposts trust me when i say they're her #1 fan.) and i like to think that priestess samekh is like. Reindeer when it comes to er creature so it just ends up in the twins being like funky cat/reindeer fellas

anyways in summary. Handing this over to teth

[lady-loveluck]

Heyyyy I just wanted to say not to care what that anon said about how you drew Grace's body because despite whether or not you intended to make it fetishy it made me happy cry when I first saw it.

Ive always been really large chested, and when I was a teenager it was an especially large insecurity of mine. I know it sounds stupid, but i actually got bullied a lot when i was younger and my large chestedness became yet anoyher yhing the other kids could poke fun of. It left me with a lot of issues, and though I've been getting over it now as an adult i almost never see my exact build in art and stuff in a way that's meant to look normal and not really fetishy. And even though its a little silly it always makes me a bit sad because it makes me feel like I look too weird to really be represented in that way. But I saw the sketch you did of grace, and she looked EXACTLY like me - it was kinda uncanny ngl. And I cried a little because seeing that my favorite artist ever drew a character I loved as also large chested with a super similar build to mine really made my day. I didn't see that sketch as fetishy because it represented myself, in my eyes. All of your art has really realistic bodies and bodily proportions, and that was just another way for me to see that you see people and bodies like mine as normal and worthy of being drawn and idk I was just so happy that whole day bc of it.

So yeah, I love your art and I know that making someone cry definitely wasn't your intention when u drew grace but I wanted you to know that!!!! Your art always brings me so much joy, and that's just an example :)

Have a great day and thank you so much ❤

Hey! This message made me feel so happy, thank you so much for leaving this here. And despite what that anon thought, me giving Grace "huge milkers" (a joke I did once and the anon didn't like it lol) wasn't based on fetichization, but more on my own body aswell! Something I clarified at that moment. The only difference within my body and hers is that her nipples are inverted!

People with these type of bodies exists, like you and like me. And maybe a hot take, but people lately have been using the word "fetishization" too loosely. Finding something attractive doesn't mean you're fetishizing it, I like big tits, I find them hot as fuck! That doesn't mean I will fetishize a person that has big tits, they're a human being that deserves respect and decency like anyone else, they just posses a physical quality that make them attractive to me.

I'm so happy you like my art and that you feel represented by Grace's body, really, these type of comments mean a lot to me dude!

Shimmering Skies - Final Drop!

So that's a real sweet ability, but like, what are we using a shift target here? Beloved Princess? Maybe the new Dazzling Dancer, since she's on curve, but she's got a passive. So. Idk.

I'm liking this trend of overstatted vanillas that aren't inkable. They might actually see play.

This is insane. This is going to be in every Amethyst deck.

I think this will also see a lot of play. Your opponent drawing a card ain't great, but this is very good stats for his cost, and at 4 Strength he doesn't die to Brawl or Medusa. He's vulnerable to Along Came Zeus, but you can't win 'em all.

Gross. Just... gross. The only saving grace is this is uninkable. Amethyst already has too many easy ways to gain lore.

A Don Karnage that dies to Madame Medusa? Pass.

Emerald getting all these kicker cards is interesting, and I think this is one of the better ones, especially since she's a shift target for:

Beauty. Grace. Elegance. Simply stunning. I'm running her in every Emerald deck from now on.

Deeply mediocre card with hilarious art. I love how old and crochety he looks.

This ain't bad. He does die to Brawl, but there are usually going to be better targets. I like it. He'll be great in draft.

If he survives to quest, this could be amazing. But that's a real big if. There's a reason why Sisu - Divine Water Dragon sees no play right now.

This is clearly the shift target for the new floodborn The Queen, and honetly, perfect, no notes. Ward means she can't get hit by chosen removal, and she has enough willpower to shrug off an early sung Grab Your Sword, or even a Triton's Decree. I would honestly just keep her in play until you have a big board of The Queens, all with Ward, of course, then shift and quest for a massive amount.

This is the first of these we've seen that's inkable, and I love that he can be played the turn after Mickey - Detective. I'd love to see a hyper-ramp deck that's just trying to get to 7+ costs ASAP.

Honestly, solid card. I think she'll see play.

The action version of the new Kuzco. Honestly might see play, as this is a real cheap way to deal with locations.

Honestly? This is a pretty solid 1-drop. He survives a hit from almost every other 1-drop out there, and can take out a fair few that see play, like Chernabog's Followers.

This seems decent, depending on how challenge-heavy the next meta is.

Inkable, gives lore, turn 4 you can move in the Grumpy you played last turn and immediately ping something, what's not to love?

I am super excited to start playing with this set! Just under two weeks!

[2000sanimeop]

I made myself an Astos playlist for fun last week and was compelled to make cover art for it, so here's that!

Why Quiet Quitting? What is Stranger of Paradise about if not a dark elf quiet quitting their job for XXXXX years?

✧ Step into my twisted mind (for the tracklist/notes) ✧

✧ 9 to 5 ✧

They just use your mind / And they never give you credit 

Dolly Parton

It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

Note: One of my favorite Stranger of Paradise pastimes is thinking about Lufenia's TERRIBLE business practices. This was the last track added to the playlist.

✧ Never Recover ✧

The Cardigans

With a hero in the past / You hang on to history

Such a loss will always last / And there's no recovery

Note: The Cardigans have so much more to offer beyond Lovefool and the U.S. Gran Turismo 2 opening. A good flavor of upbeat misery. Side note: Gran Turismo's last track is titled Nil - It's all connected! 🤯

✧ Everyday Is The Worst Day Of My Life ✧

The Lemon Twigs

Everyday is the worst day of my life

Note: I had originally considered using They Don't Know How to Fall In Place (mostly on account of being more of a song and less of a shitpost) but this was too funny not to use. This is the only song on this playlist that isn't 20+ years old. Side note: this band capitalizes all of the prepositions/articles in their song titles, like a middle schooler titling an essay.

The worst day of my life

✧ The Good Life ✧

Weezer

I should have no feeling / 'Cause feeling is pain

As everything I need is denied me

And everything I want is taken away from me

Note: I felt some trepidation including this one—mostly due to preconceived notions on what I assumed the vibes of this playlist would be like. Happy to be incorrect and it's funnier to have Weezer and Brand New here than on Jack's list (I'd sooner give Jack The Sweater Song, anyway). Side note: this is much funnier, in retrospect, now that I have Jack's set figured out; the vibes of that list are incredible, is what I'm saying.

✧ Onde Sensuelle ✧

-M-

Mais comment t'atteindre? Onde sensuelle

Toi qui me donnes des ailes

Pourrais-je te rendre un jour éternelle

Pour nous lier jusqu'au ciel

How could I reach you? Sensual wave

You who lend me wings?

Will I manage one day to make you eternal

And bind us toward the skies?

Note: An entirely vibes-based selection! Fitting, as this is the *I'm vibing* track.💜 Auto-translated, sssorry!

✧ Positive Contact ✧

Deltron 3030

Light-years from watchful eyes while my thoughts provide

I'm bio-enhanced

Hiero advanced series, monstrous evolution

Headed, tooth and nail, scoop the trail

Super-sleuth, a new race / Mad creator, savage nature

World Wide Web, the ebb and flow

Objectives to ostracize pompous prophecies

Note: Upon actually committing to making this playlist, I hoped to god there'd be a Deltron track I could use, because it would be so funny for Astos. I would've first heard this album not long after the 2008 reissue. The transition between this and Onde Sensuelle feels real good.

Brand New

✧ Okay, I Believe You,

But My Tommy Gun Don't ✧

This is the grace only we can bestow

This is the price you pay for loss of control

This is the break in the bend / This is the closest of calls

This is the reason you're alone / This is the rise and the fall!

Note: I actually switched this between playlists a couple of times before settling with Astos, but idk what I was thinking otherwise with lines like My tongue's the only muscle that works harder than my heart, lol. I think it was due to Jack's playlist feeling a little too Soft, at the time; past-me was incorrect, of course.

✧ It's Too Late ✧

Carole King

Though we really did try to make it

But it's too late, baby, now it's too late

Somethin' inside has died / And I can't hide it

I just can't fake it

Note: The quintessential breakup song!

But that was long ago

✧ Stardust ✧

Billy Ward and his Dominoes

And now my consolation / Is in the stardust of a song

Note: this is the first song I added to this playlist, and I always had it right at the end. something about having a bittersweet oldie felt like a nice echo of My Way. I would've first heard this via the Goodfellas soundtrack, which I wholeheartedly recommend.

Thanks for looking at whatever this is! While you're here, please be sure to check out @corvuscorona's excellent Astos playlist: SHADOW MONSTER.

— Chia! Chia! Chia’s Follow Forever

First of all, thank you so much for following me on my art journey! I wanted to do this when I hit 250 but suddenly there are nearly 300 of you and I need to do this before I hit 350 ;;; hehe don’t worry I’ll be doing another drawing/art related event soon

[binarybitex]

Since today is appreciation day, I obviously had to send something in ^^ This is going to be really long because I have a lot to ramble about -w-

Let's start with the obvious. Cardboard Castle. I FUCKING LOVE IT!!! I feel so lucky to have been graced with an over 100k-long slow burn with my favorite pair. You had my ass checking the tag every day to see if it had gotten an update. Every chapter is amazing, but 4 and 5 have to be my favorite. Something about them is just… idk. Maybe it's because I absolutely love carnivals and go to them every chance I get, and the way you described them it just made me feel like I was reliving them. Plus the corn maze scene?? Dawg you had me feeling like Sebastian thinking “Just kiss him!!” The fact that it’s not really a date, but totally is. Just reading it makes me feel so festive, no matter the time of year. Thinking about it now I have the urge to make some apple cider. With all the inspiration I get from it: here’s a little mood board based on it!

As for chapter 5, I really just enjoyed the dialogue at the end. The vibes are also immaculate. I can enjoy a good angsty fic like the next guy, but David and Max just bonding with each other and being mundane makes me feel so soft. The dialogue really felt like two people just going over old memories. In your author’s note, you mentioned it would be a boring chapter, but I feel like it was anything but boring. Whenever I want to read something fluffy, I always go back to that chapter. Plus what Max did to Charly was hilarious. I don’t have as much to say about this one as I did chapter 4, but nonetheless, I love it!! To be honest, it was after reading chapter 5 that I really got into writing and decided to upload my work/become more active in the maxvid community as a whole.

And onto Heart Hallow ;D I don’t usually find myself getting into OC projects, but when webtoons recommended it to me, I was like “I’ll give it a go” AND I’M GLAD I DID BECAUSE AJDGWMEOWHFE. I adore the characters, the drawings (particularly the coloring you do for each panel!), and the little stories they go through each chapter. I can tell so much love went into it from just seeing how you talk about it when asked. Kara is up there as one of my favs (yes because she’s Aroace but it has a good personality!! I just like seeing Aroace characters >w>) but Lewis and Zeke are my top too. On several of my assignments, I have Z + L scribbled on them surrounded by hearts. It has driven my friends crazy trying to figure out who they are LMAO.

And just like I do with all my favorite media, I had to insert my OC in there somewhere :3 So, Spencer! I had a lot of fun filling out her card and doing the little edit. She managed to sneak her way into employment at HH (I’m not creative, please just accept this.) and is one of the housekeepers. So two things about her. One, she’s an artist. She does a lot of landscapes/portraits. And two, she’s super messy. Which is why she has a bunch of paint all over her! She’s good at getting it out though.

Anyways, the reason that she has paint all over her is that she noticed a lot of the walls at the hotel needed to be touched up, and since she’s really good with matching colors (make-up artist), she used what paint the hotel did have to create the color needed to re-paint the walls. Then she heard about the old murals that used to be on the walls (probably from Lewis) and was like, “Wait a second. I can paint landscapes. I should do that!” So she got (dubious) permission from Mr. Wright and got to painting! She does it whenever she has time. Mr. Wright seems like he wouldn’t care, cause free art. So yeah. She does a lot of painting so constantly dirty, much to Lewis’s annoyance. And every holiday she gives all her co-workers paintings because it's cheap and easy.

And some doodles :> Not the greatest artist but I like to think I’m funny.

She suffers from having bad taste in men disease :( Her two friends, Ava and Mia run a bakery and anytime they have leftovers they give them to her. If she has anything left from that she’ll take in with her to share the next day. She is also super tall (6’5) because it's funny to insert her into a show/movie/comic and have her be the tallest person there. I also had another meme in mind but I don’t think I’ll finish it in time so be prepared for a random meme in your DMs one day.

And that’s it. Sorry it’s so long, I just want to make sure I say everything on my mind!! You’re super cool and I love your stuff and keep up the good work :3 Have a great day!!! (again your art is really nice to look at ok bye)

hi omg!! this is the most pleasant thing to open my phone up to and I just have to thank you for taking the time to write all this to me! 🫶

I'm beyond elated you've loved cardboard castles as much as me. it's my baby, and chapters 4&5 are my favorites too! I LOVE the moodboard!! omg!! srsly you did such an amazing job with it!

and Spencer is adorable !! I had a feeling you might have been coming up with an OC 👀 she'd fit right in with the cast. love how tall she is... the fact that she's taller than lewis is just 🤌and we're definitely missing a creative personality type at Heart Hollow! (for now. a new character gets released soon towards the end of book 1. she's an eccentric artsy kinda woman herself!)

your art is so cute, I love your style!! and the fact you filled out an employee sheet for spencer makes me so happy 🫶

have a lovely day and I hope that you'll send some more stuff my way! my asks are always open :-)

(btw ur ask totally made my day!!!!)

[anasartdump]

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!! it's the nice anon back again!!!!!! its been a while since i last sent you a message and i just wanted to reach out again and say hellooooooooooooooooooo!!!!! i hope everything is going well for you <3 i was thinking about your art on valentines day and how jake and neytiri would spend that day!!!!!!!! i love your art of them on the beach and it made me think of them having a beach date for valentines day and how suuuuuuuuuuuuper cute that would be!!!! so i came to your blog and stared at it for a very long time and thought about them being happy lolololoolol anyway just wanted to say hey and let you know that your art is still making me so happy <3

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!

It's always a delight to see a message from you in my inbox 🥺🥺🥺

Awww 🥺🥺🥺 It warms up my heart that you remembered my art on Valentine's Day! 💖I wish I could have drawn something for it, but I'm still somewhat working through my creative block and also working in some other personal projects 😭😭 But it makes me happy that you remembered my Jaytiri art and came back to my blog to look into them 🥺🥺

For sure they would have a beach date! My friend @beautyofattolia and I were discussing how Jake would have taught Neytiri about Valentine's Day and other human traditions, since she taught him her own culture and traditions and imagined him taking her on her first Valentine's Day in Pandora while she is pregnant with Neteyam 🥺

Those are the headcanons she shared with me:

Jake is already a super romantic person and i feel like Valentine's in general is important to him (because he likes doing things for his partners, he's an action guy vs a word guy) and that is even more true with Neytiri since she is 1) his wife and 2) his soulmate she's obviously pregnant with Neteyam during their first ;

Valentine's so like i said above, he would want to go all out and plan the perfect day for her, especially since she would be coming out of the second trimester and getting more sore, tired, etc;

i think he would also be so excited to do all the "traditional" gifts for her since she has taught him so much about Na'vi culture and he would want to return the favor and teach her something good about human/American culture;

it would start with him bringing her breakfast to their marui so she doesn't have to get up (and of course lots of cuddles because he is that person);

he would also have gifts;

jewelry is traditional so this is where he would give her the necklace he's been working on (definitely with help from others). a necklace because he has 100000000% broken one of her previous ones and wants to give her one in return and also because he wants to finally give her something back after she gave him that choker he starts wearing during the Tree of Voices scene;

he would want to do candy/sweets because again that is a traditional gift. idk if he would try to steal candy from Hell's Gate or do her favorite Na'vi equivalent with help from Mo'at, probably both because he wants her to have the whole range also cuz pregnancy cravings;

i also think the tradition of stuffed animals is adorable and i think he would like it too and since the Na'vi make their own toys, it would also be something he spent time on to make for her. i like the idea of him making her a little palulukan toy because 1) she is Palulukan Makto and 2) that's what he calls her when they're being spicy 😂 😂;

plus it's an extra cute gift cuz it's something they could use for the new babies (they would know that Grace's Avatar was expecting at this point);

after giving her gifts and everything, he would be like "so women on Earth like to visit spas on Valentine's Day so we're gonna do something similar" and take her to the hot pools so she can relax (carrying a baby is a lot of work) and he would give her massages (although he's probably mediocre, it's the thought that counts) and just completely dote on her;

he would also be like "date night dinner on Valentine's is very important!" and have Mo'at pack them food for them and take her somewhere else on Bob. i like to think that maybe it's the spot from Way of Water? i like the thought of them having their date night spot. like obviously they visit other places too, but that's a favorite of theirs cuz let's be real, that view is AMAZING;

and then of course they would eat their food and he would have her favorite flowers to give her (the ones like she wore in her hair the night they mated 🥺 🥺);

the night ends with them having sex because of course it does 😂 😂 although probably a bit more gentle than usual due to the fact that she's fairly far along in her pregnancy

I hope my friend and I can work with this idea someday through RP, cause the RPs always help me get ideas for drawings since I love drawing the scenes I write together with friends!!! 💖💖

I really feel bad not posting anything for Valentine's Day though, I was working on something but my other projects ended up thwarting it, 😅 But we'll see I can finish it so I can post it here too!

Either way, your messages always fill me with joy, even if I haven't been posting art these days, it's nice to know you're always there to support me 💖💙💖🥰 Thank you once more for all the positivity and support!!!

[agustdiv1ne]

i want to get into writing but have a hard time feeling inspired. i have so many good ideas in theory but have such a hard time finding the write words to use.

i guess what i am asking is how do you create the atmosphere of your fics. every time i read one of your stories i am completely immersed and am left wanting more. what inspires you to keep going?

omg hello!! first off, thank you! <3 idk if i'm the most qualified person to answer this question, but i will try my best to :') (everything under the cut bc this got a little long)

please remember that these are the things that work for me. the writing process itself is super holistic, so what works for me may not work for you,, let's get into it !

personally, writing involves a lot of trial and error. trying stuff out, seeing what resonates with me, implementing those elements into my writing...rinse and repeat, basically. sometimes, finding the words i want to use is hard; i've been stuck in ruts where i'm only able to jot down a phrase or two. at the same time, that's something to be proud of because hey, you created something! creating anything in the first place is big!! having ideas is big!!! it's good to have some grace for yourself as you write. roadblocks may arise, but try not to get discouraged by them. they're very real and normal

outlining an idea is a great way to get started. there's no pressure to write anything outstanding, so this generally helps me just get everything i want to write down on a page. from there, i may flesh out more parts of the story that i'm excited about. the "right" words don't need to come out at this time. for example, here's an excerpt of my outline for ticket to nowhere:

as you can see, it's extremely far from perfect (it's...really bad, actually), but it was a good start! my outlines are always informal as that is what flows the easiest

talking to someone about my ideas also helps get me motivated to write them. my dms are always open to anyone who would find that helpful!

as i write, i often search around for words that may lend itself well to the Vibes™. onelook thesaurus is great. it can help you find words that relate to others, as well as words that are on the tip of your tongue but can't seem to remember. a general thesaurus has also helped me out a bunch because i like using fancy words for absolutely no reason

in all honesty, the atmospheres of my fics often stem from my media consumption...music is a huge source of inspiration for me, as are books, tv shows, and movies. i often find that books help me try out new writing styles and play around with my voice. for example, after i read bunny by mona awad (insane book btw, totally recommend), i tried including a lot of imagery in ticket to nowhere !! in terms of music, i like to make playlists and listen to it while i write ^^ it helps me get into the zone for sure

the fact that i get to share my ideas and not keep them locked away in the dark basement of my google drive is probably my biggest motivator!! i'm creating things!!! i get to share them!!!! art is wonderful!!!!! it doesn't matter if it's a short drabble or a 100k word multi-chapter fic, every piece of writing that you create is something to be proud of :) it's also important to note that i have taken longgg breaks from writing throughout my time on this blog (like. upwards of six months at a time throughout 2021-22), so stepping away from an idea, even if it is for a few minutes, a few hours, a few months, etc., may help in regrouping and finding inspiration again !!

i think this is kind of a mess, but i hope it helps,,, i'm always here if you need any advice ^^

[retrogradedreaming]

okay so i went and read your pinned post on your oc blog and i wanna hear more about gingersnap book 👀 what are the characters like? what's the world like? i'm bad at coming up with questions so just share anything you want skjhgsk

sfksdjfld grace this made my morning <3 also don't worry about being bad at questions, I sent the ask about your OCs to you before 6am when my eyes had been open a grand total of five minutes, so you're good 😂

btw before i get into it, if anyone wants to see my wips, characters, thoughts about either, and other original work, i post more of that on my wip sideblog @slippersandsmoke

gingersnap book is the oldest project I have that I'm still (sort of) working on (since...2015? 2016? i can't remember when Liam and Elliott first showed up). it's a little complicated for me because very early on, the characters started as like side OCs in a collab fic sort of thing with my ex, and then these characters developed more completely into their own thing until I took them out of the fandom world where they started and just made them their own story.

the world is just our world and the story is set in the general area of where I live. that might change, though, because one of the characters supposedly lives in his family's vacation house and no one has a vacation house here. then again, maybe he can just move, idk, I've been taking a break from working on the main story this year, so I haven't worked out a lot of the details around the setting/reasons why one of the main characters lives there. which also means that anything I tell you now is subject to change later.

the story follows Liam and Elliott, who had a long-term relationship, broke up, and then come back together through a series of unfortunate coincidences and events. the characters are all in their mid-20s (y'know, to reflect that i was in my mid-20s when I made them), and the whole story is kind of like an exploration of the mid-20s experience of "what the fuck am I doing with my life?"

since this is getting long, I'm putting the specific character info for the four main characters I think about under the cut

Liam: He's a manager at an upscale restaurant in the area, he's from London (I think) and he's...hm. Not very nice? He tries to be, and he's reliable, practical, and gets shit done, but he doesn't do feelings. He moved to [the fictional version of where I live] for school, where he met Elliott. He's really into theatre, and he prefers directing to acting (though he's quite capable at both).

Elliott: Elliott lives in western MA, and he went to school for art. He loves to draw and paint, and he works at a bookstore and as an art teacher. He's very opposite Liam in that he enjoys his alone time, but he'd much rather enjoy time with other people and he has no problem being likable and fitting in with others.

Will: He works with Liam at the restaurant, and he bounces between jobs to pay for his apartment and help his mom support/care for his younger siblings. He has a German shepherd named Milo, and he's kind of a work hard play hard type of person, where he works a LOT but he knows how to have a good time. He's involved with Jasper, but they both have their own commitment issues, so they're mostly friends with benefits who are inextricably connected.

Jasper: He's a bartender, and he's had a rough life. He met Will in high school and spent most of his time at Will's house, so he essentially integrated into their family until Will's dad died when they were in college (Will dropped out after that because he needed to work). And that's when Jasper kind of left the picture for a while, since he thought his struggles would make it worse for them. But Jasper himself is really sweet, super outgoing, and he's the kind of person that people naturally look after because he's such a disaster that everyone's like "should probably watch that guy." But he means well, and he loves Will despite his commitment issues.

shaman king ch 17

im crying omfg this was a heavy chapter im crying i cant!! what an amazing way to end this volume :,)

to be honest i didn’t fully understand the “to kill your heart” phrasing from last chapter...but this is a very interesting way of focusing and not letting your emotions dictate your actions and influence future. if your dream and goals in life are strong and you believe in yourself and hold true to your dream, you will get there little by little.

cool scene!

another cool scene! very gorgeous! i adore these illustrations in between chapters!

i’m not really a person that is interested in watching actions fighting scenes...but Takei Hiroyuki really makes it feel impactful and artful and interesting. it isn’t like other shounen animes where the fighting scenes feel days or even weeks long, but these fighting scenes have purpose, they have a reason and aren’t excessively long. it really enjoy that about this story the most.

its interesting how even in death, they are still very much master and student. and i like this scene because even though pyron is very well-known and is “a master” to many others, he is still a student...as we are all still students and learning and needing a helping hand every now and again. im probably reading too much into this but this series really has me overthinking this way...plus it’s how i process all these profound ideas and concepts.

pyron’s story is one of the few that really attacks me emotionally and i just really feel for him and his struggle. it’s tough because he really has all a strong reason to struggling with himself and everyone like this. but at the same time i love that the story doesn't let it play out too long nor glorifies or romanticizes this inner grief of what he has lost. after letting his anger and frustration out for a moment, he is dealt this his own ego and pride for his goals and dreams and i find that super hard, to choose your dreams over letting yourself drown in these emotions. it isn’t easy.

another very cool scene!!

i love and adore that jun has moved from calling pyron “hers” until she “lost him” because of her loss of complete control but the truth is, and anna said it in the last chapter, that pyron is HER responsibility and she has to take ownership over her actions. like these kids are really doing her a favor at this point. but anyways after that, pyron has “become hers again” after jun has realized that she never lost him but she can.idk what im saying alsdkjfalksdfa im sleepy

[ cue pretty handsome reveal ]

man yoh NEEDS A BREAK! again he went out with his friends and took a break to watch a movie with them and then this happens. he never can catch a break, poor yoh

i love jun’s growth and development in this whole arc like wow. just like pyron, it isn’t easy to realize that you were wrong in situations you have felt very strongly for. it’s also very honorable and graceful of jun to admit defeat to yoh as well and to acknowledge yoh’s own strength and ability and worth as a person and shaman :,)

aaaaa [ cue my tears again ] im crying in the chat laksdjflaksjdf ;O;)/ bruuuuuuuhhh this is like so smooth and damn asldkfjalksdjfadlskf i want them both to heal and learn from each other and grow again and be better people than when they were separately and just i love pyron and jun so much!!

amazing cool scene. man

[chef kiss] beautiful amazing wonderful amazing extraordinary!!! a standing ovation on my part to this! volume 2 is over and next is volume 3!!! i...idk how my heart can take this XD ive been feeling very sensitive lately due to personal events and just these stories and characters really get to me.

SORRY FOR THE LATE RESPONSE I needed to really really get into this one because I am

So

Big on music and my music opinions I needed to go through and get all of my ducks in a line before writing this.

I absolutely love the idea of Toast writing specifically with gothic influences. The band Rosegarden Funeral Party, specifically (my favorite band rn I so recommend them if you’re interested in modern goth) portray emotions in a way that I think resembles how Toast would write. I’d love to think he would use poetic imagery to paint pictures with his lyrics.

A few examples of what I’m thinking:

“In the eye of the storm, I wait

—And everything will be dark

And you will roll in like the rain

Coming down to haunt me

Again “

-Like The Rain, by Rosegarden Funeral Party

“what if I never come back from this?

Forever part of my eternal darkness

Show me what it’s like

To live on the other side

To live in love and light”

-Salvation and Saving Face, by Rosegarden Funeral Party.

“And all those flippant drunken nights

Feel like little falls from grace

My hands feel stained

I can't find the place between

Salvation and saving face”

-Salvation and Saving Face, by Rosegarden Funeral Party.

“When was the last time you said my name?

Should I feel guilty for saying yours again?

I know you probably curse it now

But I still care somehow

If it’s wrong, I don’t care, I’ll keep quiet

I think I’ll reach out but I know I’ll never try it

I see the ghost of you

In corners a younger me knew

In hindsight I’m happy that I knew you”

-Ghost of You, by Rosegarden Funeral Party

Though I think you’d have to hear the songs to fully understand the emotion behind them. Leah Lane’s voice is so powerful and rich, it really makes the songs points that much stronger. And I am so abnormal about it I love her so much. It’s the kind of music that you need to have both headphones in, close your eyes, and sit in darkness and just absorb. And I love it. So much.

That’s a little off track. And idk if this even gets my idea across super efficiently.

But I like to think Toast has a generally beautiful outlook on the world around him, and that he takes the darkness around him and what he experiences and twists it into art. Which, in my opinion, is best done with goth music. Something about it just hits differently it’s so great.

Anyways. That is what I think about Toast writing. This is my plan for whenever I have him do any type of creative writing. The idea of him being some type of corporate goth makes me a little crazy, I just haven’t found it to fall naturally into my overall headcanon for him. But it’s in my brain. It’s one of my marbles and it rolls around and clinks against my other headcanons occasionally. I fuck with goth Toast HEAVY. Like not full on goth necessarily, but a ghost hunter who is always in formal attire? It has goth undertones and I will die on that hill. He has a gothic heart as far as I am concerned. But that is one of my more outlandish (?? Is that the right word? Idk it’s 2 AM) opinions so feel free to take it with a grain of salt. But also feel free to take it with a bucket of salt because I will GLADLY elaborate if you have any other questions regarding it lol. I am super willing to make a little playlist with these types of songs if you are interested.

But yeah no I definitely can’t do smut either LMAO idk what it is about it I just can’t do it. I can read it easier than I can write it. Something about it just sits bad with me whenever I try, I think it’s just not for me. And I get that it could be a good plot device and you can learn about characters in entirely new ways but I just can’t do it. But yeah it’s not necessarily that a lot of things scare me, I think I’m a pretty sturdy person in that regard and I can push through a lot of freaky medias. And I’m usually very comfortable going into things blind, I prefer to not read warnings because I don’t like the spoilers and I am able to handle it usually. There’s just a handful of stuff that I am a little less resilient to and I sometimes have to take a little step back from and cannibalism is one of them lol.

When you get the playlists done PLEASE share them with me I will be so unbelievably excited for them you do not understand.

Ashamed to admit that just now when Cannibal by Kesha came on my brain immediately created a celebrity au where Jimmy is a controversial music artist and a string of high profile celebrity murders been happening lately….

Oh no wait, now I’m thinking of an entire au with other chars too—

Ghost is also a musical artist, being the lead singer in a band with Spooker, Colon, and Katrina (it used to be Ghost, Toast, and Katrina but a big fallout happened before any of them rose to fame that led to Toast leaving back to England and eventually becoming a model). I imagine Katrina as bassist, Spooker on drums, and Colon on guitar. Ghost used to be drummer, and Toast guitarist and lead vocalist, but Ghost took over vocals after his departure and Colon took over for Toast, with Spooker being a very last minute addition by chance when they heard how good he was and Katrina convinced Ghost having someone else on drums would leave him more time to focus on vocals and writing. Also, I feel like all of them would sing but Ghost is the one who sings most of the songs (also he can scream crazy good and I stand by that (also it’s hot af lmao)). Colon probably had mild experience in singing but has improved a lot since then, and Spooker had NO natural or learned singing skills going into the band and is still not quite up to par with his bandmates, but he’s improved /so/ much.

Toast would probably do modeling cuz, duh. But also he writes books and a lot of people won’t give them a chance because they think he’s just a pretty face but he’s actually a talented writer of supernatural mysteries. Also, more recently he got into acting and blew up on the big screen and prefers the acting gigs because he feels like he gets to showcase more of his skills and get more appreciation for them than he got in modeling.

Gavin probably is a stunt double for Toast. Besides that, I see him probably being Jimmy’s dealer (Jimmy does copious amounts of drugs he is never not on cocaine idk what to tell u /hj). He prefers to keep out of the actual spotlight of celebrity lifestyle, and instead reap his own benefits from it in the background.

Mary. Hmmm….. I feel like she needs something that’s not like, typical spotlight celebrity. I remember a certain someone (wink wink) talking about ballerina Mary… I think that’s actually perfect. She’s a skilled and renowned ballerina, but also, I think she figure skates. And does some modeling on the side—maybe how she met Toast? I’ll have to think more on it.

The Third House Placements and Their Handwriting Styles ~💖🌺🐚

Welcome back babes 😁🙏✨ I’m back posting someee bit but anything nonetheless ! This was a post I wanted to do for a while, this really intrigued me💫

I’m going to be talking about third house placements and their unique to the placement writing styles. Third house rules hands, arms, fingers and writing, correct !😄🎶 There is a correlation between handwriting and third house in astrology as it literlaly rules over it, so components in your third house astrology will dictate how this will look. Use all of the possible combinations you have in your chart ! 🙂☝️

For generational planet ruled signs, use whatever works better.

🔆Sun/leo ~

May have a gift in being very dramatic and showy whenever they express their ideas or in their communication they can be very bright and charming. They’re very talented at absorbing knowledge and facts, they usually are the types of people to dish out random facts about anything whoever you’re talking to them, they have so much random knowledge kept in their minds it’s almost funny. They’re silly and a bit childlike people,

Handwriting style 🦁

Regal, nice looking. They have a confidence to their writing, if the whole class wrote on one piece of paper, theirs would stand out more, maybe a “I can trust what they write is the best there is here” is what people reading over theirs would think.

🌙Moon/cancer ~

Loves sentimental things, talking about the past and family makes them feel good and safe, attachments to the mother, most likely missed her or their family whenever they had to go to school, homesickness at school

Handwriting style 🌝

Soft, homely words. Shyer? They write with a grace and their words are poetically beautiful. It looks like something out of a movie. Nostalgic, their ink is softer and lighter, their curves are soft, their lines and o’s are soft and so sensitive. SO gentle and calm. It’s sleepy?

💫Mercury/gemini/virgo ~

The wittiest, most social people ever. They’re all definitely extroverts, I am one with my gemini in 3rd house ova here 😘, they love talking, and never stop talking and love chatting about anything and never stop chatting about anything, they love walking up to random people and never stop walking up to random people and staring a convo with them out of nowhere 😀. My friends bully me all the time for this. I understand. The one kid in school with like all the answers, they just knew the answer to things and easily got good grades. People asked them for answers all of the time since they are so smart and intelligent, they absorb what they’re being taught so quickly they don’t ever let the teacher finish talking. They’re fast and versatile.

Handwriting style 🤸‍♀️

Fast writing, so many words. They write super fast and probably have so many typos in their essays and papers. Handwriting can look like crap 🤨😐. Like there’s no rush, you’re gonna get your paper done on time! You can’t read what they write al of the time because they rush through writing everything. Their letters and words look fancy somehow, like they were written by the scholar of all scholars, they’re just unintelligible words and sentences. Teachers may need to ask what the student with this placement writes because they can’t read it. Scribbles, jumbled and mixing up things all over the page. You can tell they write fast with the jagged lines and crooked n’s and t’s ajakksks.

💕Venus/taurus/libra ~

Very sweet and charming way of talking to others, they have strong persuasive powers with their honeyed words, they can almost charm you into doing anything, they seem so innocent and sweet. These people are very kind though of course! They love giving others compliments, strangers, their friends, their family, they’re such sweet people to have in your life. They attract partners and relationships by doing their daily tasks, lovers can show up suddenly when they’re running errands or they can attract a lot of interest at their school.

Handwriting style 🍓

The most pleasant, aesthetic handwriting i have ever seen, even if their handwriting is bad it still becomes an art style somehow, i don’t really know how else to describe that. It’s like no matter how bad it could possibly look or how incoherent it is, their script still manages to look NICE.

💥Mars/aries ~

Very loud voices, a bit like sun, but it’s more like their power and strength is used whenever they talk. They could be meaner or aggressive classmates, angry talkers, I know so many people with this placement who talk so mad, so much cursing, ranting and screaming. We love it all.

Handwriting style 🥵

Very rough and fast handwriting, similar to mercury; however, it has more fervor, the messiest and most impulsive handwriting out of all of the other placements.

🐚Jupiter/sagittarius ~

Loud and expressive communicators, similar to the sun here, but they’re louder and bigger. You can hear their voices from across the room and they’re usually the know-it-all’s in the classroom. Very friendly and fun to talk to, they talk about so many exotic and interesting things. They love to crack a joke or two. Also, it’s something about these peoples voices are just FUNNY. Like how they talk is like hilarious and jolly in a good way. It make you wanna crack up and feel good. They make you feel good and BLESSED when they talk to you.

Handwriting style 🍀

Larger letters, I’ve noticed they have bigger “holes” and like to expand their letters over the pages, their words go over the lines and it could be messy usually, sort of like mars fashion but it’s just wider words on the paper.

🪐Saturn/capricorn ~

Very punctual people with perfect punctuation. They hate it whenever their thoughts are messy or unorganized, it makes it hard for them to think thoroughly like they are expected to. They’re the smarter most mature minds in the room. Very deep, daddy voices. IDK HOW TO DESCRIBE IT. THEY SOUND LIKE THEIR DADS. ITS CRAZY. They talk with so authority and sureness, their diction is so perfect it makes everyone mad.

Handwriting style ✏️

Perfect handwriting, they hate it when their sentences look off or unstructured on a page. The most rounded o’s, the straightest lines and perfect length for every letter they write. Correct punctuation once again, their words look like they were printed by a typewriter.

🌪Uranus/aquarius ~

Very different minds, they could feel strange or odd in school, like they were just the oddball learners, had weird interests, or was a huge nerd over so many subjects. Crazy coffee drinkers, the ones with monster drinks and twenty textbooks that are about to fall out of their open backpacks because they rushed to get to school on time. The craziest people actually, their minds are like on drugs, they can be hard to keep up with.

Handwriting style ⚡️

Weird ways they write certain styles of their letters and their words can “come out” of the page. They write SO fast this is usually why they take harder classes in school with more work just solely on the fact they can write much faster than anyone else. Maybe comic-book looking writing? They’re dynamic and crazy like harsh lines and crazy o’s, there’s something unique about the way they write.

🌊Neptune/pisces ~

Such idealistic thinkers. They want to see the good in their surroundings, they do need to be careful with this because surroundings and things can be deceiving. They can absorb such much of their surroundings, they can be quieter communicators because of this. It can be taken advantage of since they’re overwhelmed by conversations or they can be easily fooled by the wrong people. Like they believe things that aren’t even true? Or they like tell a lot of white lies when they’re talking that make people go like uhh is that even true?😀😀 But they play it off when they’re caught lying, it’s very deceptive. The quietest kids in school that either did drugs or tried to escape class by doing some illegal stuff, or they just left. Some were never seen at school.

Handwriting style 🌀

The sleepiest handwriting I’ve ever seen. It’s provably hard to read what they write. Faded words maybe? Faded words on faded paper. So poetic though, it’s pretty but not in a venus way, it like captivates you. It’s hypnotizing they way they draw out their e’s and their a’s have a dreamy tail that connects to their next letter.

🥀Pluto/scorpio ~

Obsessive minds, they want to know everything possible, they want to reach the deepest depths on information and knowledge. They are motived and driven to know as much as they can, and they always seem to succeed. They’re very smart. The kids in school who would keep to themselves or would obsess over what the teacher taught them, the way they communicate is like they’ve read the same page over and over again for days. Obsessive.

Handwriting style 🖤

Darker, hard to see words, they can have obsessive writing. It’s perfect but fast writing, maybe a bit scary that they have the ability to write so much with so much power? People can be freaked out with just how much they know already. So their words can be very persuasive, so the letters would be magnetic, you love their writing once you read one of their essays. You’re obsessed, just like they are.

He Doesn't Love Me by  Fatally

“Dabi doesn't love him. He's accepted that thorny truth, swallowed it down and let briars grow in his chest, drinking down his blood like water.Or: The one in which Hawks settles for pining for his entire life and doesn't realize Dabi's been staring at him the entire time, too.” 

-- I love pinning Hawks with a burning passion.

Completed

Words upon words of heartfelt confessions, letters of sing song fantasies, syllables of feelings he never got to say out loud.

When Dabi hits twenty four-

He meets Hawks.” 

-- i don’t know how to explain but this fic it’s pretty

(this is not a) swan song by  bittermoons

“"Who's your favorite, then?"

"Hawks." Touya doesn't miss a beat. "Definitely Hawks."

"What? Seriously? How come?"

"He has his flaws, but at the end of the day, he's trying to do good. It's something he always strives for. Dabi, on the other hand...if it weren't for Hawks, he wouldn't be a hero, that's for sure."

[Or: How a secret is revealed, and what comes afterwards.]”

-- Adorable no quirks AU with manga artist Touya and oblivious Keigo! Another author i adore pretty much all dabihawks works.

You can't trap the sky in a bottle by thyandra

“Letting Toga organize the accommodations for their trip might have been a mistake. This particular truth becomes obvious to Keigo as he opens the door of his hotel room for the first time. There, staring back at him mockingly, is a single, king-sized bed. It’s only by virtue of all the years spent perfecting his poker face around his adoptive parents, that he manages to keep his face straight. At his side, Touya clicks his tongue. “They must’ve given us the wrong key.””

--(no quirks AU) I really love they way Dabi and Hawks are written here i can’t express it in words and so so much pinning

The Others by  threesipsmore

//Mature - 2 sexual scenes, nothing too explicit but they’re there//

“"Skeptic's starting to think he’s more important than me,” Toga sneers, an acidic edge to her voice. “Making decisions on his own, sending out birdie without even talking to me first.”

She’d simply acquiesced to cooperating with Skeptic, but from day one the complaints had never stopped. In this tiny room layered with sushi and cakes, Dabi was forced to listen to her whining.”

-- You go birb, you get that man

Completed

Equivalent Exchange by  inexchangeforyoursoul

“Keigo blinks the blurry oblivion away from his eyes, although some part of it is oddly stubborn and to stay indefinitely. There's three things he's certain of: first, he’s alive. Second, just by looking at the bed and windows he can tell this is no villain hospital or torture room. Third: something feels wrong. Very wrong.

The silence… is deafening.

dabi's 5-step guide to being a better parent than endeavor by  twinkfrankenstein (orphan_account)

“A little voice inside his head whispered spitefully about how this was no place for a child, and how he was making a mistake and would only traumatize the kid, yada yada. He responded with an equally spiteful-

“Fuck off, its not like I planned to do arson today.”

(or: how Dabi becomes a good dad just to spite his own, realizes he kinda sorta maybe likes Hawks for realsies, begrudgingly admits the League cares and finally comes to terms with his protective side. Not in that order.)“

-- this legit made me laught out loud idk what else tell you

The Todoroki In-Laws by  aphrodaisyacs

“Over 10 years after the fight against the Paranormal Liberation Front, Rumi, aka the part-time hero Miruko and the proud wife of one Todoroki Fuyumi, decides it would be an awesome idea to create a groupchat with the significant others of the other Todoroki siblings.

Maybe things would be easier if its members weren’t two Pro Heroes, a former one and a rehabilitated villain, but…Honestly, where’s the fun in that?”

-- this is not dabihawks focused but it’s so funny pls

Completed

With Being Petty Comes Consequences by  CursedUndead
